Ask me what Velo would say about your lap times
West I would REALLY like to get you to ride along on a session. Either late Saturday, or early Sunday. I need to get Jake out with me as well.

Lemme know if you guys do this in white. I'd love to tag along if neither of you mind.

I'll be able to get some video of you guys as I follow for about two turns, and then again when you come around a couple of laps later and pass me...

That is fine with me. I'd like to run a few sessions before we go since the last time I ran this direction was the club race (??)

Two turns HA, I'm one of the slower drovers.

It's really pretty easy Jeff. It's like this:

Go straight
Go left
Keep going left
Go straight
Go right
Go straight
Go right
Go straight
Go left
Go lefter
Go straight
Go left -- pray
Go straight
Go left
Go straight

Keep going right
Have a latte
Keep going right
Go left
Go straight

Go straight
Go left, right, left

Repeat

Got it?

And what I meant by you running in the yellow group is when you drive some of the guys cars that are in yellow. I'd like to start out following, if you leave me no problems, I'll just turn up the boost in the straights to try and keep up.

I need big time help on 7 (too slow at entry) and 13/14/15 to get a good drive onto the straight.

VR: You still game for a couple of lead/follow laps?

Brad
Oh man. Ride with West into 7 without puckering. I got money that says you can't.

Mike, that's awesome.

I want to print that out and hand it to green students at the PDS event just to see the looks on their faces.

Ah, now I understand. Truth be told, I very rarely drive students' cars anymore. Too many liability issues. I will occasionally drive cars of students I know very well/friends/fellow instructors//coaching clients/other racers I know. I will also occasionally drive my own car in Yellow if I din't have a student, just to see if eberyone is behaving & coming within 3' of their apexes... So I doubt I will be driving anyone's car in yellow, unless Blondurant hands me her keys.

That said, I would be happy to run a few laps in Yellow, at a moderate pace, for a lead follow, if you'd like. Perhaps 2nd Yellow on Sunday, unless I have a student?

Or you are welcome to ride with me anytime in my car in the instructor group, or White when I have one free.
